Work Experience
Scientific Programs Expert
The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey
Ankara, Turkey
2012 - Present
- Creating reports for board members using business intelligence tools (mostly Oracle BI), programming RMarkdown make these reports autonomous
- Develop web applications with dashboards with the RShiny package tool in order to create quick and explanatory ideas from the datasets obtained by associating the data received from stakeholders with the database.
- Project: Use neural network and decision trees, model the relationship between refree reviews and board assessments to develop decision support system for project evaluation process. This model predict finding approved or rejected projects with an 88% success rate. This study helped to significantly reduce the time in project evaluation processes.
